WIN A SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION COLLECTIBLE HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN T-SHIRT
1992 British low rent sci fi film "Split Second" is one of my favourite Rutger Hauer movies (Wedlock, Suriving The Game & Blind Fury probably the closest others). The film is a shameless knock off of Alien thrown in a blender with Blade Runner, various 80's/90's post apocalyptic tropes, and an armful of familiar faced british character actors (Pete Postlethwaite, Ian Dury, etc).
ReplyDeleteIn the climactic battle, Rutger faces off with the Alien, which appears to be some form of giant mutoid Rat.. after a while splashing around in the London sewers, Hauer's character quite happily punches through the rat's chest, rips out its still beating heart, then cooly blows it away, splattering Cannon Street tube station in corn syrup and latex.
Awesome stuff, have a watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=994DBK6gdw4&feature=player_detailpage#t=416s
ps - Blade Runner is certainly RH's most memorable death scene, but DOES he cause it himself?
Split Second - he rips the monster's heart out! And his character's name is HARLEY STONE. Top that.
ReplyDeleteHas to be said I don't think you can beat the death of Nash in the Hitcher. Death by truck - that's pretty hard core and nothing like putting a bit of effort in!
ReplyDeleteHere's an odd one. The first girl Rutger Hauer kills in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cassandra, that always freaks me out for one reason: it's my cousin. Rutger Hauer drains my cousin, Natasha Gregson Wagner of her blood. He's creepy enough, but then he went and did that and absolutely terrified me.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking the 'manhole cover decapitation' from HWAS is pretty damn good. Would also make a great name for a band.
ReplyDeleteSurely one of the finest is the truly explosive
ReplyDeleteending to Wanted: Dead or Alive when he finally dispatches Gene Simmons.
Can't believe no one added "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die. "
ReplyDeleteHis own death scene as replicant Roy Batty in Blade Runner
ReplyDelete"I've done questionable things". Roy Batty kissing his maker Dr. Tyrell on the lips before slowly crushing his head in 'Bladerunner'. Brutal and impassioned and surely one of his finest ever performances.
ReplyDeleteSeen a few Hauer movies but nothing quite compares to "I'm gonna sleep in your bloody carcasses tonight!". Favorite by far.
